You made a promise to me long ago

Saying that you would never leave

But this I know

You were the one

Not me who chose to blow

When I loved you so



Raise high the roofbeam

I don't care, make room

For more lonliness here



It doesn't matter what you do or say

I'm gonna love you, love you anyway



Your love is my umbrella

Let go in the wind

Settle down upon me once again

Don't leave me long

Don't leave me lonely



You'd been sending out the word to go

I needed love

I didn't want to know

I pretended not to hear and

So I stayed too long with you



I stayed too long with you

It's true



You blew into me

Like the wind and then you

Blew right out again



Your love is like the wind

Blowing through the trees

Stir it up

Blow it down on me

Don't leave me long

Don't leave me lonely



My love is as strong

As the day is long

Put an end to my pretty little song

Don't leave me long

Don't leave me lonely



You never wanted to tell me

What you were feeling

Now I see

You've got me reeling from it

I really needed your love

My wounds

Have been bleeding enough

Come patch me up, patch me up



It was the seventh hour

The seventh day

The seventh

Of the pretty month of May

You said goodbye

Went away

And I'm not the same

Not the same

Not the same



I don't want to live

With this pain everyday

I don't want to stay here

In a bad way

Don't leave me long

Don't leave me lonely

You take away every fear

That I hold so dear

You give away so much love

I just gotta be near

Don't leave me long

Don't leave me long
